The sid-milter package is an open source implementation of the Sender-ID and
|
||
|
SPF sender authentication systems.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Sender-ID and SPF have both been published by the IETF (RFC4406 and RFC4408,
|
||
|
respectively) as experimental proposals.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This package consists of a library that implements the record parsers needed
|
||
|
to provide the authentication service, and a milter-based filter application
|
||
|
that can plug in to the sendmail MTA to provide that service to sufficiently
|
||
|
recent sendmail and postfix MTAs.
|
||
|
|
||
|
An optional asynchronous resolver library is also provided to work around
|
||
|
limitations of the basic BIND resolver which comes installed on most
|
||
|
systems.
